I would love to start in October but the docks are not open to fishing until after all the boats are gone by October 31st.

Do both people need to be members? The grandson isn't a member, at the moment he has no internet.

davidhoheisel · **Reply #13 on:** September 02, 2013, 08:32:43 AM

Qauckpot,

I will make an exception for your Grandson.

See you soon.
